A zero of a function is the value of x for which f(x) = 0
f(x) = 16x^2 + 32x - 9 = 0
16x^2 - 4x + 36x - 9 = 0
(16x^2 - 4x) + (36x - 9) = 0
4x(4x - 1) + 9(4x - 1) = 0
(4x + 9)(4x - 1) = 0
4x + 9 = 0 and 4x - 1 = 0
4x = -9 and 4x = 1
x = -9/4 and x = 1/4

Solution:

The given Quadratic function whose zero we have to find is:

  16 x^2 - 32 x -9=0\\\\16x^2-36 x + 4 x -9=0\\\\4 x\times (4 x -9)+1 \times(4 x -9)=0\\\\(4 x +1)(4 x-9)=0\\\\4 x +1=0 \text{or} ,4 x -9=0\\\\ x=\frac{-1}{4} \text{or} , x=\frac{9}{4}

So,

     x=\frac{-1}{4} \text{or} , x=\frac{9}{4}, are zero of Quadratic function.

If the equation was like this

\rightarrow 16 x^2 + 32 x -9=0\\\\16 x^2+36 x -4 x -9=0\\\\4 x\times (4 x +9)-1 \times(4 x +9)=0\\\\(4 x -1)(4 x+9)=0\\\\4 x -1=0 \text{or} ,4 x +9=0\\\\ x=\frac{1}{4} \text{or} , x=\frac{-9}{4}

So,

     x=\frac{1}{4} \text{or} , x=\frac{-9}{4}, are zero of Quadratic function.

a shopkeeper sold goods for rs 2400 and made a profit of 25% in the process. find his profit per cent if he had sold his goods f
miv72 [106K]

case 1,

Let the CP be ₹x,

SP = ₹2400

Profit = SP – CP

= 2400 – x

Profit % = {(2400–x)/ x} × 100%

According to the question,

{(2400–x)/ x} × 100 = 25

=> (2400–x)/ x= 25 /100

=> 100(2400–x) = 25x [ cross multiplication]

=> 240000 – 100x = 25x

=> 240000 = 25x + 100x

=> 240000 = 125x

=> 240000/125 = x

=> x = 1920

So, CP = ₹1920

case 2,

SP = ₹2040

Profit = SP – CP

= 2040 – 1920

= ₹120

profit % = 120/1920 × 100%

= 16%

<h3>Thus, his profit would be 16% if he had sold his goods for ₹2040.</h3>

Use a daily production cost C for x units. A manufacturer of gas grills has daily production costs of C = 400 – 5x + 0.125x2, wh
Lady bird [3.3K]
The function given is a quadratic function, so the graph will be a parabola. It'll look similar to the photo attached. The minimum cost will be at the vertex of the parabola because that is its lowest point! To find the x-value of the vertex (which is what the question is looking for), use the vertex formula: x = -b/2a. The variable b is the coefficient of the x term in the function, and the variable a is the coefficient of the x² term. In this case, a = 0.125 and b = -5.
x = -(-5)/2(0.125)
x = 5/0.25
x = 20
So, 20 gas grills should be produced each day to maintain minimum costs. Hope that helps! :)

On her first day in a hospital, Kiri receives u1 milligrams (mg) of a therapeutic drug. The amount of the drug Kiri receives inc
Valentin [98]

Answer:

a. 21 = u1 + 6·d

b. 29 = u1 + 10·d

c. d = 2, u1 = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The given parameters are;

The amount of therapeutic drug Kiri receives on her first at the hospital = u1 milligrams

The amount of drug increase received by Kiri each day = d

The amount of drug Kiri received on the seventh day = 21 mg

The amount of drug she received on the eleventh day = 29 mg

Therefore, we have an arithmetic progression with the formula for the nth term given as follows;

aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)·d

Where;

a₁ = u1

n = The number of terms

Therefore, for the 7th day, the amount of drugs she receives, which is 21 milligrams, is given as follows;

a₇ = u1 + (7 - 1)·d = u1 + 6·d = 21

The equation for the amount of drugs she receives in terms of u1 and d on the seventh day is given as follows;

21 = u1 + 6·d

b. For the eleventh day, the amount of drugs she receives, which is 29 milligrams, is given as follows;

a₁₁ = u1 + (11 - 1)·d = u1 + 10·d = 29

Therefore, the equation for the amount of drugs she receives in terms of u1 and d on the  eleventh day is given as follows;

29 = u1 + 10·d

c. Therefore, we have two equations which are given as follows;

21 = u1 + 6·d................(1)

29 = u1 + 10·d..............(2)

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2) gives;

29 - 21 = (u1 + 10·d) - (u1 + 6·d)

8 = 4·d

d = 8/4 = 2

d = 2

From equation (1), we have;

21 = u1 + 6·d = u1 + 6×2 = u1 + 12

21 = u1 + 12

21 - 12 = u1

∴ u1 = 9

d = 2, u1 = 9.

What is 2 divided 1 6/7 ? Please answer
Aliun [14]
If you would like to divide 2 by 1 6/7, you can do this using the following steps:

1 6/7 = 13/7

2 / 1 6/7 = 2 / 13/7 = 2/1 / 13/7 = 2/1 * 7/13 = 14/13 = 1 1/13

The correct result would be 1 1/13.
